Sold the EVO last night

The dealer gave me a fair trade, it was easy! To bad I didn't get a chance to remove the mods!!!!

But I still got some parts at home.

It's been fun, & it was the FASTEST car I ever owned, & one of the most reliable! I will miss it!

We got a 08 Mini Cooper S turbo, yes it no were near as fast, but still a fun car, & less then 1/2 the price to insure!

Yup, I'm there. Yes, I already miss it, I didn't even get a chance to take my final good bye drive.

YUP, the EVO was not safe anymore, it was broken into 3 times, & we were just done.

Yes, modded, I got a TRUNK full of parts already!

I do have other cool cars, that are AWD, while not as flat out fast like the EVO, look better, handle & stop better

Why? There stock, with 10 year old radios. Not worth it. While the EVO had a nice NAV system. We also have a 6 camera night vision setup, with a alarm, that was put in after the last EVO attempted break in, where I chased the guy.

EVOIIIM3 has my taste in cars, too bad he only put a pic of the S4 bumper in there he's got too. All in all, I might of kept the Evo over the S4, but that's like deciding if you wanted the super hot blonde or the super hot brunette... both will get the job done!

LOL, yes, the S4 is stupid fast, & has a ton more torque, over 250w under 2000 rpm's. It is a maintaince *****, it breaks down a lot! But is more conformable & easier to drive then the EVO, but gives up handling & braking to the EVO.


It was totalled in 1/08, that snow storm we had, I was beside a 5 car wreak, & it spit out a spare tire that I hit @ 60mph, took out the motor, trans, & some suspension parts.
